DETAILED SUMMARY OF THE MATTER THAT PLAINTIFF SEEKS TO VALIDATE:

The Department constructed and operates and maintains the State Water Project (Project). In recent years, the Department has undertaken to develop a comprehensive plan for the effective delivery of Project water across the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta in conjunction with the conservation and rehabilitation of the environment and species in and around the Delta. Currently, Project water is conveyed across the Delta through the channels of the river delta formed by the confluence of the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers, as those channels have been modified over 150 years by the construction of levees, ship and other canals, flood protection channels, salinity gates and other facilities. The Department has approved the financing of the planning and design and, if and when appropriate, the acquisition and construction of conveyance facilities known as the “California WaterFix.” Broadly described, the California WaterFix would transport water from new intake points on the Sacramento River across the Delta by two underground tunnels running below the natural waterways of the Delta to export facilities at the southern edge of the Delta.

The Department is authorized to carry out its various duties and functions in relation to the Project by the Central Valley Project Act (Cal. Water Code §§ 11100 et seq.) (the “CVP Act”) and the Burns-Porter Act (Cal. Water Code §§ 12930 et seq.), among other authorities. The Department is authorized to construct units of the “project” as that term is defined by the CVP Act, and to issue revenue bonds to pay the capital costs of those units. Among its authorities, Section 11260 of the CVP Act authorizes the Department to include the California WaterFix as one or more of the units “provided for in this chapter[;]” Section 11454 of the CVP Act authorizes the Department to “do any and all things which in its judgment are necessary, convenient, or expedient for the accomplishment of the purposes and objects of this part[;]” and Section 11700 of the CVP Act authorizes the Department to issue revenue bonds “[f]or the purpose of providing money and funds to pay the cost and expense of carrying out any of the objects and purposes of this part.”

On July 21, 2017, the Department adopted resolutions authorizing, among other matters, the issuance of revenue bonds, in multiple series, the proceeds of which would be used to pay the costs of the planning, design, acquisition, and construction of the California WaterFix. On the same date, the Department filed its validation complaint pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure section 860 et seq. In its complaint, the Department alleges, among other things, that it is statutorily authorized to issue revenue bonds to finance the acquisition and construction of the California WaterFix and to pledge California WaterFix revenues to secure the payment of debt service on these bonds in the manner provided by the Department’s resolutions. In the authorizing resolutions, the Department found and determined that: (1) the preliminary cost estimate for California WaterFix, not including bond-related costs such as capitalized interest, costs of issuance and bond reserves, is $16 billion; (2) the estimated amount of such costs to be raised by the issuance of California WaterFix revenue bonds is $8.8 billion; (3) the probable amount of money, property, materials or labor, if any, to be contributed from other sources in aid of the California WaterFix is $7.2 billion; and (4) the principal amount of bonds estimated to be required to be issued by the Department for the California WaterFix is $11 billion.

The Department seeks in its validation action a judgment from the Court confirming the validity of the Department’s authorization of the issuance, sale, and delivery of the California WaterFix revenue bonds, the pledge of California WaterFix revenues to secure the payment of debt service on those bonds in the manner provided by the authorizing resolutions, and the resolutions and proceedings leading and related thereto, all as described in the validation complaint. The actual construction, operation, and maintenance of the California WaterFix is subject to statutory and regulatory requirements not at issue in the validation action, and the Department has not alleged in this action satisfaction of those requirements.

YOU MAY SEEK THE ADVICE OF AN ATTORNEY IN ANY MATTER CONNECTED WITH THE COMPLAINT OR THIS SUMMONS. SUCH ATTORNEY SHOULD BE CONSULTED PROMPTLY SO THAT YOUR PLEADING MAY BE FILED OR ENTERED WITHIN THE TIME REQUIRED BY THIS SUMMONS.
